RELATED: Shigeru Miyamoto’s Best N64 Games Unfortunately, the success of Nintendo’s flagship franchises on the Nintendo 64 has meant that many great games have fallen through the cracks and been forgotten in time. To give such games their due recognition, this list will look at some thoroughly enjoyable games that many people have forgotten about today. Updated April 22, 2022, by Jack Pursey: Considering that the Nintendo 64 was Nintendo’s first 3D console, it’s impressive how so many of its games hold up well today....

Over 50 games will be made available during the Wii U’s launch window, an a very large time frame beginning with the system’s North American launch on November 18th, 2012 and and ending March 31st, 2013. The majority of the titles are planned to be retail releases, while others like Runner 2 will be available digitally through the as of yet unnamed online store. The list itself is comprised of first party games like New Super Mario Bros U and Pikmin 3 and third party exclusives including Bayonetta 2, ZombiU and Rayman Legends....

Super Mario 64 is one of the most influential video games of all time. Many fans have great memories of playing the 3D platformer on the Nintendo 64 and being astonished at what 3D gaming could be. The game has been made available by Nintendo on multiple consoles since the original Nintendo 64 launch, including via virtual console on the Wii. But many have been hoping for some sort of HD remake, which in some ways was provided by this 4k PC port....

The release of Nintendo’s latest console, the Switch, has definitely counted as a success for the Japanese tech giant. This console has become very popular these days because it allows users to play titles both through a TV or as a handheld console. Furthermore, the Nintendo Switch’s design and Joy-Con controllers that can be separated from the rest of the console have proven to be better than those of previous consoles....

UFC-Que Choisir is going one step further, though. It’s not just simply suing Nintendo over Joy-Con drift; it’s demanding that Nintendo actually change how it manufactures the controllers, accusing the publisher of anti-consumer practices and deliberately designing the controllers so that they break more easily. RELATED: The Rumored Nintendo Switch Pro Needs to Make One Big Hardware Fix Nintendo has been offering free repairs and president Shuntaro Furukawa has also apologized for the trouble caused, but UFC-Que Choisir clearly believes this isn’t enough, as Nintendo is still making controllers with Joy-Con drift....

For the first year of its console life, the Nintendo Switch lacked a dedicated online system, until September of 2018 when the Nintendo Switch Online service began. The service allows players to play online multiplayer games, communicate with friends through its smartphone application, and save their game data to the Cloud. Subscribers also receive access to a 100+ original NES and SNES games, as well bonus discounts in the Nintendo eShop....

Yesterday, Nintendo Canada sent two representatives to Chris’s house, where he (along with his brother, his best friend, and his Mother) was able to play Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. for 3 hours. Nintendo had actually confirmed the visit with him on Tuesday, just some 4 days after the campaign really took off, but had it kept under wraps given that a portable build of Smash Bros. was a high-value entity, and Nintendo preferred to conduct the visit in a personal manner....

Nintendo of America President Doug Bowser took over the position in 2019 for fan-favorite Reggie Fils-Aime. Bowser has not taken center stage as often as Reggie did during his tenure. But he appears to have taken a strong leadership stance in relation to the ongoing Activision Blizzard situation, calling it “distressing and disturbing.” RELATED: Activision Blizzard Shareholders Ask Bobby Kotick to Resign According to Fanbyte, Nintendo of America President Doug Bowser recently sent out an email to all Nintendo of America employees and internal development teams, including the likes of Retro Studios and Next-Level Games....

There are a couple of trailers, a few hints, and plenty of details to speculate about, but it’s easy to get worried about the future of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2. It’s already been a while since it was first revealed, and while many have said more news would come in 2022, it’s understandable if anyone is apprehensive. However, Nintendo seems pretty confident in meeting that 2022 release window....

Set to arrive on November 11, 2016 for a suggested retail price of $59.99 USD ($79.99 CAD), the miniature rendition of the iconic Nintendo Entertainment System will utilize an HDMI cable to plug into the more modern television sets that have come to the market place since the console originally made its debut in 1985. Gamers won’t be left to search the Earth in the hopes of securing retro cartridges either, as the NES Classic Edition Console comes with 30 games pre-installed on it....

Home to video game giants such as Nintendo and Sony, Japan is the one of the world’s top exporters of gaming hardware. Nintendo’s products make up a great amount of those exports, as the company’s products have become synonymous with gaming culture around the world. The Switch has helped drive Nintendo’s success in recent years. Unlike its predecessor, the Switch is able to rival competitors such as PlayStation and Xbox consoles, as the Switch accounted for 87 percent of console sales in Japan in 2020....

Interestingly enough, a fresh video from a NeoGAF user known as hiphoptherobot posted a picture of the console’s home menu running on one of the system’s controller touchscreens, claiming that they had been accidentally sent a Nintendo Switch unit two weeks ahead of its launch next month. Following the post on the popular gaming forum’s website, hiphoptherobot recorded footage of the initial setup process for the system, as well as its main menu and settings, which can be found in the video below courtesy of Dystify’s YouTube channel....

The request came Thursday on Saban’s weekly call-in radio show, when one intrepid fan asked the coach, “Would you object to me putting you as the write-in for the president of the United States?” MORE: Week 10 picks: Can LSU pull the upset? Saban, tactful as he is, politely declined the opportunity: “I have all I could handle right here,” he said. “I don’t need all those problems.” Of course, Saban would likely get a hefty amount of votes from throughout the Southeast in a presidential election — but only because voters would rather see him running the White House instead of dominating the Southeastern Conference....

The final episode, titled “Crime and Punishment”, follows the crux of NXIVM founder Keith Raniere’s trial in 2019. Raniere was found guilty on multiple charges including racketeering, sex trafficking, forced labor conspiracy, identity theft, and production and possession of child pornography, receiving 120 years in prison. Nevertheless, since his incarceration, his supporters have been fighting to exonerate him. One of Raniere’s most loyal supporters is Nicki Clyne, a Canadian actress and former NXIVM member....

The first of three days of action in the Super League round six saw one home win and one away win, with seven goals being scored in both matches. Nidzam Adha was put back in charge of Kedah and despite missing the services of playmaker Liridon Krasniqi, led his side to a comprehensive 4-0 win over Selangor at Darul Aman Stadium. Another import in Pablo Pallares was only left on the bench but Nidzam’s decision proved to be a right one....

As producer Yosuke Saito explains, the first step in the production of the sequel was all about making amends for the missteps of the first title. As it turns out, the harsh reaction from critics about the original game’s lacklustre action sequences is exactly what led Saito to team up with Platinum Games this time around, a studio which had previously worked on Bayonetta and Metal Gear Solid: Revengeance. As we played a short period of the game in the boots of the android 2B, the studio’s action experience was immediately apparent: combat felt very fluid, and it was easy to hack and slash with 2B’s sword as she jumped and dashed across a battlefield of tin-can looking robotic enemies....

NieR Replicant is a remaster of the 2010 PlayStation 3 game NieR, overhauling both the visuals and combat while retaining the same story. Snippets of released Replicant gameplay have shown that the visual overhaul is immense, bringing the game up to par with its critically acclaimed successor, NieR Automata. Now that the exact stats are out, PC players must know that they will need something a bit more powerful than a PS3 to run this game, but they also won’t need the most up-to-date systems....

However, while it at first looks as if Dad Nier is being omitted from the remake entirely, Nier Replicant’s producer Yosuke Saito teased in a recent interview with PCGamesN that the game will have something for fans of that version of the character to enjoy. He obviously didn’t go into specifics, only saying that those who played the original game ten years ago will be more than satisfied. RELATED: Nier Replicant Getting Automata Costume DLC...
